Proximity Sensors are designed to detect and respond to movement outside of the component and within the range of the sensor (0” (0 mm) to 50’ (15.2 m)). The sensor types include capacitive, inductive, infrared, light, and ultrasonic with output types of analog current, voltage, configurable, I2C, NC, NO, NPN, 2-wire, 3-wire, 4-wire, 5-wire, PNP, push-pull, relay, requires amplifier, and SCR.

In embedded design, the tug-of-war between cost and performance is constant. On one side, you have Microcontrollers (MCUs)—cheap, simple, and efficient. On the other,…
